I want to transfer information/programs etc from my old Dell laptop to my new Dell one. Vista tells me that I can do this easily using an Easy Share Cable. Can anyone tell me a good place to get one of these cables with the installation disk ?

Your laptops are networked via the wireless router in your other thread, so transfer files that way. See http://www.microsoft.com/technet/network/evaluate/vista_fp.mspx, or use 'sneaker net' and a USB pen drive or CD-Rs.
You can't just transfer programs - they have to be installed from CD or the download file.0 -
ok thanks I will try and use the netwroking- never done that before !
I have Microsoft Office 2003 on my older laptop is the some way I can move this to the new laptop since I can find the original disks ?"The time is always right to do what is right"0 -
No, you have to install it using the CDs.0
